[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cloth toilet lid cover provided with a tensile strip having tensile elasticity and having at one end a hook portion which is hookably and detachably hooked to a rear end edge of the toilet lid. And the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a toilet lid cover to be attached to a lid of a Western-style toilet bowl, there are an upper surface cover portion that covers the entire upper surface of the toilet lid, and the entire front edge and side edges of the toilet lid. The elastic strip is fixed in a contracted state along the inner edge of the folded portion, and the rubber is located at a position forward of the rear edge on the back surface of the toilet lid cover. In some cases, the front end of the string is sewn and a hook is provided at the rear end of the rubber string. In this toilet lid cover, the front edge of the toilet lid is inserted between the folded portion and the upper cover in a state where the upper cover covers the upper surface of the toilet lid, and the toilet lid cover is attached to the toilet lid. The rubber strap sewn on the back surface of the cover is extended rearward, and the hook at the rear end is fixed to the rear edge of the toilet lid, whereby the toilet lid can be fixed.

[0003] However, if it is sewn to the rear edge, the sew mark of the front end of the rubber cord, which is inconspicuous if it is sewn to the rear edge, is located at an inner position in front of the rear edge on the back surface of the toilet lid cover. When sewn in the usual way, it appears prominently on the front side of the toilet lid cover. To avoid this, sew the front end of the rubber cord to the back side of the toilet lid cover by scooping, or if the toilet lid cover is made of pile cloth, sew only between the piles avoiding the pile As a result, a complicated sewing method for preventing the appearance of sewing marks on the surface has to be taken.

Further, the upper cover portion of the toilet lid cover attached to the toilet lid is pulled rearward from the rubber cord substantially in parallel with the back surface of the upper cover portion to the narrow portion where the front end of the rubber cord is sewn. Receive strength. As a result, the front portion of the upper surface cover portion receives a tensile force from the narrow portion to which the front end of the rubber cord is sewn, and such a tensile force does not act on the portion from that portion to the rear edge. . Therefore, wrinkles are formed on the surface of the upper cover portion of the toilet lid cover, and the appearance is impaired.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, and has as its object that a trace accompanying fixation is formed on the other side of a sheet-like material such as a toilet lid cover.

To provide things.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A toilet lid cover according to the present invention is provided with a detachable portion which can be detachably fixed to a rear end edge of the toilet lid at one end, and the other end of an elastic tensile strip having tensile elasticity. The attached portion, which is a part of the side, is fixed to an inner position in front of the rear edge on the back surface of the cover facing the upper surface of the toilet lid, and the attaching / detaching portion in a state where the elastic tensile strip is extended rearward. Is a cloth toilet lid cover fixed to the rear end edge of the toilet lid, of the back surface of the toilet lid cover, the portion where the attached portion of the elastic tension strip and the back surface of the toilet lid cover face each other. The adhesive material is fixed and solidified over the peripheral portion thereof, and the portion of the adhered portion of the elastic tensile strip that faces the back surface of the toilet lid cover is fixed to the adhesive material ( Claim 1).

[0007] The toilet lid refers to a toilet lid that is rotatably supported at the rear end by a hinge or the like and that opens and closes like a lid of a Western-style toilet. A similar toilet lid is included in an appliance used in a Western style by mounting on a Japanese toilet.

As an example of the detachable portion which can be detachably fixed to the rear end edge of the toilet lid, a hook portion detachably hooked on the rear end edge of the toilet lid can be mentioned. Another example of the attaching / detaching portion is a suction cup that can be attached to the upper surface of the toilet lid.

The elastic tensile strip may have a part or the whole having tensile elasticity, and examples thereof include a string or a band, a part or the whole of which is a rubber string or a rubber band. be able to. You may have the length adjustment part which can adjust a full length.

[0010] A detachable portion is provided at one end of the elastic tension strip, and a part of the other end of the elastic tension strip (for example, the other end or an intermediate portion from the one end to the other end) is attached. Department.

The toilet lid cover is made of cloth (pile cloth such as tufted pile cloth or other cloth), and is provided with an elastic tension at an inner position in front of the rear edge of the rear surface of the toilet lid cover facing the upper surface of the toilet lid. The attachment portion of the strip is fixed by an adhesive substance. The inner position means an inner side than the peripheral portion.

As the adhesive substance, a hot melt adhesive can be preferably used, but it is not limited to this. Various adhesives such as an epoxy resin adhesive and an ultraviolet curable adhesive can be appropriately selected and used.

[0013] The adhesive substance is fixed and solidified over the portion of the back surface of the toilet lid cover where the portion to which the elastic tension strip is attached and the back surface of the toilet lid cover are opposed to each other, and the surrounding portion. The portion of the portion to which the elastic tensile strip is attached to the back surface of the toilet lid cover is fixed to the adhesive substance. The portion around the portion where the elastic tension strip is attached to the back surface of the toilet lid cover does not necessarily need to be the entire periphery. For example, portions on both sides of the periphery may be used. The area of the portion where the adhesive substance is fixed to the back surface of the toilet lid cover can be, for example, about 1.5 times or more the area where the adhered portion faces the rear surface of the toilet lid cover. Preferably, it is about 2 to 3 or 4 times.
The size of the portion where the adhesive substance is fixed to the back surface of the toilet lid cover may be, for example, about 1.5 to 2 or 3 times the size of the adhered portion facing the back surface of the toilet lid cover. it can.

As an example of such a toilet lid cover, an upper cover portion that covers the entire upper surface of the toilet lid, at least a front edge portion (for example, only the front edge portion, or all and sides of the front edge portion). It has a folded portion (or a bag-shaped portion) that covers the lower surface side of part or all of the edge portion, and if necessary, elastically contracts along the inner edge of the folded portion (for example, the elastic strip is in a contracted state). Which are fixed). In this case, with the top cover covering the upper surface of the toilet cover, the front edge of the toilet cover is inserted between the folded portion and the top cover, and the toilet cover is attached to the toilet cover. By extending the elastic tensile strip in the rearward direction and fixing the detachable portion at one end thereof to the rear end edge of the toilet lid, the toilet lid cover can be fixed to the toilet lid.

Since the adhered portion of the elastic tensile strip is fixed to the back surface of the toilet cover made of cloth with an adhesive substance, traces due to the fixation do not appear on the other surface of the toilet cover while being easy to manufacture. In this respect, the appearance of the surface of the toilet lid cover is not impaired.

When the toilet lid cover is attached to the toilet lid and the elastic tension strip is stretched to fix the detachable portion to the rear edge of the toilet lid, the upper surface of the toilet lid, the back surface of the toilet lid cover, and the space between them The located elastic tensile strips are parallel. In this case, the tensile force received by the cloth toilet lid cover almost in parallel to the back surface thereof due to the tensile elastic force of the elastic tensile strip is the portion where the adhesive substance is fixed to the toilet lid cover, that is, the adhesion of the elastic tensile strip. The part of the toilet lid cover and the surrounding part are received in a relatively wide area including the opposing part and the surrounding part, so that the elastic tension strip applies tension to the narrow part of the toilet lid cover at a position forward of the rear edge. Concentration of force prevents wrinkles in the toilet lid cover as much as possible.

It is preferable that the adhered portion of the elastic tensile strip is embedded in an adhesive substance.

Since the adhered portion of the elastic tensile strip is embedded in the adhesive substance, the adhesive strength between the adhesive substance and the elastic tensile strip is excellent.

The strip-shaped sheet-like article of the present invention has an axial center substantially parallel to the sheet-like face of the flexible sheet-like article at a position inside the peripheral edge of one surface of the flexible sheet-like article. It is a strip-shaped sheet-like material in which an adhered portion, which is a part of a tensile strip receiving a tensile force in a direction, is fixed, and among the sheet-like materials,
The adhesive substance is fixed and solidified over the portion where the adhered portion of the tensile strip and the sheet-shaped material are opposed to each other and around the portion,
A portion of the adhered portion of the tensile strip that faces the sheet-like material is fixed to the adhesive substance (claim 3).

Examples of the flexible sheet-like material include a pile cloth such as a tuft pile cloth or another cloth constituting a toilet lid cover or the like.

A part (for example, an end part or other part) of the tension strip is provided with an adhered part, and the adhered part is located at a position inside the peripheral part on one surface of the sheet-like material by an adhesive substance. It is fixed. The adhesive substance is fixed and solidified over a portion of one surface of the sheet material where the portion to which the tensile strip is attached and the sheet material are opposed to each other and a peripheral portion thereof. Further, a portion of the adhered portion of the tensile strip facing the sheet-like material is fixed. The portion around the portion where the adhered portion of the tensile strip and the sheet-shaped object face each other does not necessarily need to be the entire periphery. For example, portions on both sides of the periphery may be used.

As the adhesive substance, a hot melt adhesive can be preferably used, but it is not limited to this. Various adhesives such as an epoxy resin adhesive and an ultraviolet curable adhesive can be appropriately selected and used.

The tension strip receives an axial tension in a direction substantially parallel to the sheet-like surface of the sheet during use, such as the elastic tension strip in the toilet lid cover. The tensile strip may not have substantial tensile elasticity as long as it receives such a tensile force at the time of use. A string or a band that is a rubber string or a rubber band) may be used.

Since the adhered portion of the tension strip is fixed to one surface of the flexible sheet by an adhesive substance, the trace accompanying the fixation is easy to manufacture, but the other surface of the sheet is fixed. And the appearance of the other surface is not impaired at this point.

The tensile force which the flexible sheet-like object receives through the tension member substantially in parallel with the sheet-like surface is the portion where the adhesive substance is fixed to the sheet-like member, that is, the portion of the tension member. Since the attachment portion and the sheet-shaped object are received in a relatively wide portion including the opposing portion and the surrounding portion, a tension strip is applied to a narrow portion of the sheet-shaped object at a position inward of the peripheral edge thereof. Concentration of the tensile force prevents wrinkles from occurring in the sheet-like material as much as possible.

It is preferable that the applied portion of the tensile strip is embedded in an adhesive substance.

Since the adhered portion of the tensile strip is buried in the adhesive substance, the adhesive strength between the adhesive substance and the tensile strip is excellent.
